Inside this 80+ page report:
– Personal identity and psychological self-estrangement
– Brain-to-brain communication and collective consciousness
– Neurorights, cognitive liberty, and informed consent
– Military neurotech and the China–US tech race
– Neurocapitalism, neuromarketing & brain-data commodification
– 12 concrete recommendations for regulation & design
Whether you’re a policymaker, ethicist, neuroscientist, or just a concerned citizen—this is required reading on the future of the mind.
